Looks for Range

Looks for Range (1/11)

  1. I saw that a couple days ago when I completely disassembled the primer feed mechanism. There was wear at the back of the spring seat area but I should check the rivet and see if there are any witness marks on it. The whole indexer engagement / release /reset seems a little loosey goose to me. If the spring gets out of wack in the least the whole thing come crashing down.
  2. That I will have to try. I always tighten it pretty good. I hope it's that simple!!
  3. My guess is at the top of the stroke since that is the only way I see a force on the index mechanism. The arm is bending and the spring is also getting bent and ruined. I can bend the arm back fairly close but the springs are never the same and it stops indexing without the new spring. Please elaborate on the Primer seating assembly.... i'm not following how on the upstroke the it would cause damage. doesn't the primer wheel disengage the shell plate near the bottom of the stroke and the wheel index at the top of the stroke??? I think I am missing something. Thanks
  4. Been running win sp but I do have federals. They warn against using them though... and with issues already I'd hate to have a detonation
  5. Hello - I just picked up a new 650 a month ago and have crushed the Primer Arm Indexer and it's spring 2 times. Dillon is now sending me a third one. the first one lasted about 300 rounds and the last one about 50. I've cleaned and lubricated everything and at this point Dillon helpline asked me to separate the brass in to different head stamps. I think that they are stumped too. I've never owned a 650 before but have run a 550 for 20+ years and I can't see a connection between head stamps and crushing the primer indexing arm.... Looking for any help or suggestions from the Enosphere. Thanks Scott
  6. I have a old 550 and a 1 week old 650 and the difference in Tool head play is substantial. I'll have to measure it but it would explain the difference guys are seeing regarding the effectiveness of the threaded tool heads.
  7. What size are the screws that they use on the clamping kits? #4, #5 or are they metric? Thanks scott
  8. Just going thru some photos from the past hunting season and thought I post this one. I used my Mossberg 930 that I normally use for 3 gun, without all the race gear on it. Converted back to a regular hunting shotgun with a extended Briley Imp. mod Choke, which has been just deadly on waterfowl. And shooting with my Rudy Magsters that I wear for competition shooting. You can get them at www.e-rudy.com and using the PISTOL code get 25% off. If I could just figure out how to improve my pistol shooting by using my 2 labs, boy that would really make me feel like I was getting double duty out of them too.
  9. Just to Update.... Remington replaced the barrel... cracked gas block they said
  10. Thanks Lugnut - the actual string times are great for checking individual times. Dave - That is pretty quick! That would be the ultimate goal though. Thanks a bunch Guys Scott
  11. Thanks Tom. I am running about 16-17 sec on Stage 3 string 1 and 2 and figure that is were I need the most work. Like to get it down to 14-15 sec with of course minimal points down. scott
  12. hey does anyone care to post their stage times for MA in SSR? I have about 4-5 seconds to trim somewhere and would like to get an idea of what Master Class SSR are running so I can focus on my weakness.... which I am guessing is Stage 3. Thanks Scott
  13. Yes I tried different slugs and shot. Using the IC tube that came with the gun. Might be worth while to try a different IC tube, maybe an extended tube. Not running a clamp on the extension but that might be worth trying also. Thanks for the suggestions I'll give them a try this weekend. Scott
